Pakistan vs South Africa first Test Day 3 Live Streaming

The following story was posted prior to the resumption of first Test between Pakistan and South Africa at Centurion on Match’s Third Day.

An uphill task has again been assigned to Pakistani bowlers to restrict South Africa within 148 runs to win the first Test at Centurion as the match enters third day on Friday.

The situation could have been much favorable if Pakistani middle order and tail-enders batted more sensibly and endeavored to build partnerships. At one stage it was 101 for 1 but a subsequent collapse ended Pakistan’s second innings on just 190 runs.

Having secured a 42-run lead against Pakistan after first innings, South Africa now requires 149 runs with 10 wickets in hand to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match Test series.

In Pakistan’s second innings, openers didn’t disappoint this time especially Imam Ul Haq who scored 57 runs, though his partner Fakhar Zaman went early on just 12.

Shan Masood also displayed brilliance with the bat and scored 65 runs. However, rest of the players performed miserably and ruined the efforts of bowlers and the top order.

The Captain Sarfraz Ahmed’s second consecutive innings also ended in duck.
